The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

Transformers: The Last Knight is a 2017 American science fiction action film based on Hasbro's Transformers toy line. It is the sequel to Transformers: Age of Extinction (2014) and the fifth installment in the Transformers film series. The film was directed by Michael Bay and written by Art Marcum, Matt Holloway, and Ken Nolan. It stars Mark Wahlberg reprising his role from the fourth film, while Josh Duhamel, John Turturro and Glenn Morshower reprising their roles from the first three films. Stanley Tucci returns as a different character after also appearing in the fourth film, as well as Laura Haddock, Isabela Moner, Jerrod Carmichael, Santiago Cabrera, and Anthony Hopkins all joining the cast. In the film, inventor Cade Yeager is gifted a Talisman by a dying Transformer knight, and is soon recruited by an eccentric British professor to save the world from the impending threat of a Cybertronian Sorceress. Transformers: The Last Knight premiered on June 18, 2017, at the Odeon Luxe Leicester Square in London and was released in the United States on June 21, by Paramount Pictures. The film received generally negative reviews from critics, and grossed $605 million against a production budget between $217–260 million. Despite its high gross, the film became a box office disappointment resulting in an estimated $100 million loss for Paramount on the theatrical release. It was followed by a prequel, Bumblebee, in 2018. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
